Joe, joe, joe, only fuck-ups need clean starts
I scream as you come my way
(I'm happier when you're gone)
Joe, joe, joe, the chime of love's texting your phone
Familiar as the clothes I own
California, Pensacola, go
I'm happier when you're gone

It's not easy, it's not easy
Homelessness at home
My life is bracing for your hug
You pass me to unplug your phone
Hallelujah

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
The smell of burning cattle hangs on the westerly
Sweeping up through the ferns

I'm happier when you're gone
I'm happier when you're gone
I'm happier when you're gone
I'm happier when you're gone

Benzo timeline, cuts smiles to straight lines
I'm happier when you're gone

(Happier) it's not easy, it's not easy
Hopelessness on the range
(Happier) yeah, you're breathing hard in the pastures
not the lock, then what has to change?
(Happier) persecution is your favorite word

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
The smell of burning cattle hangs on the westerly
Sweeping up through the ferns

I'm happier when you're gone (happier)
I'm happier when you're gone
I'm happier when you're gone (happier)
I'm happier when you're gone
I'm happier when you're gone

I'm happier when you're gone
